Review: Skylight Installation Service

2 years ago

We had two solatubes installed. One in a guest bathroom with no outside lighting, the other in an upstairs hallway that was also quite dark.

Everything went perfectly, we were able to easily schedule the installation with Donna. They came out on a Sunday and the installation was quick and painless. All in all it was 5 hours at most from arrival to completion. The results are everything we hoped, the bathroom and hallway are both significantly brighter.

Installed solartube in my living room and an attic (I call it a whole-house) fan in my laundry room

They were very responsive when I requested an estimate and scheduled the job that evening. Keith discussed with me the best location to install the solartube for maximum benefit and what I could expect. He returned the next week to do the installation. He was very careful to protect my floors and furniture and to clean up when the job was complete. I'm very happy with the entire experience and would highly recommend this company.

Provided an estimate for installing a Solatube.

The man who came out and gave the estimate was on time and very professional. As it turns out, we couldn't put the Solatube exactly where we wanted it, so we asked for an estimate to have it placed in another part of the house. I thought the estimate was very reasonable. We did not actually end up buying a Solatube because it wasn't a priority to put one in that secondary spot. So we will wait to do it in the future. However, I would have no qualms about hiring them to come out to install it. The woman on the phone was also very nice. I would recommend this company.

Installed 2 Solatubes

Keith was very professional and precise. it must have been the hottest day of the year when he did the work. He stayed until he completed the job. I can't imagine was it was like for him working in the attic space. I will use him again.

Corrected a poor/faulty/improper installation job done by another outfit (Leitner Electric Co./Blue Chip Solar and Wind...I do NOT recommend this outfit for ANYTHING) which was done 3 years ago. Kevin Yount of First Day Natural Lighting spent 3 full days working in a hot attic area while he completely uninstalled, disassembled, re-assembled, and re-installed the 2 Solatube systems. They billed the original installer (Leitner) for their $1000 labor costs and billed me $261.02 for 3 roundtrips from the Dayton area and for 2 replacement Solatube lenses that Leitner damaged in his original installation. Kevin does beautiful work!

Fantastic. I rate First Day Natural Lighting as an A Plus. Quality work done with amazing attention to detail. It is a pleasure to work with true professionals like Kevin and Donna at First Day Natural Lighting. They are the factory-approved and recommended installers for the Solatube skylights...a great product. I highly recommend them. They get the highest marks for integrity, professionalism, quality. and responsibility.

Review: Skylight Installation Service

Kevin was on time and finished the job in one day. He was helpful in advising us on where to put the tubes and it seems to have worked out just fine. Also it's true, my wife and I both have went to turn off the light when leaving one of the rooms. It's really great having the natural light coming into these rooms. Before the solatubes we had to turn on lights to do almost any task in the kitchen or laundry room. Now you can cook, do the laundry, and take a shower with out any lights on during the day. It's great!

One large Solatube 290 DS with Light Kit was installed in our kitchen ceiling. The tube for the skylight was installed up through the attic and into the roof. We've had other solar tube lights installed in the past and they have worked out very well, and this one seems to be great too. I love how it gives daylight to a dark part of the room and also includes a regular light for night time. Also, this will qualify for a 10% tax energy credit for 2011.

Kevin Yount was prompt, knowledgeable, polite, careful and efficient. The job was done in one afternoon.

Review: Window Replacement Service

First Day's Kevin is a very professional and responsive and very service oriented. He answered all questions about the system and gave us a variety of options and prices to choose from concerning the windows. He was prompt, and worked efficiently and cleaned up very well.We also qualified for the energy credit for the solar installation. The dark rooms are now awash with light and it is beyond what I thought could be.The work went faster and was less a mess than also expected. We spent much less than installing full skylights but the effect is excellent. .

Sun tubes were installed in two areas of our home. The amount of light the tubes brought into the rooms is very nice. We like the appearance of the product and light better than skylights.

The fact this is family oriented business was apparent from beginning to end. Estimator and installer were friendly, professional and reliable.
